Taking your kids to the track

But usually at the end of the day it was frustrating cause the kids would get tired and or bored and I would miss something while trying to handicap on the fly. Now God is punishing me cause both of them can't stand the thought of going and nothing would make me happier than to see them take a little interest in it and want to spend the day with their old man at the track.

"I'm taking them to the park"...hilarious!

“Going to the park.” That really is classic.

I’m thinking I’ll get all my selections figured out the morning of, make all my bets early on and not do any “on the fly” handicapping. Easier said than done though.
